Answer:

The phosphorus ylide reacts with the aldehyde or ketone to make an oxaphosphetane.

Explanation:

The Wittig reaction is a reaction that occurs between a phosphorus ylide and an aldehyde or ketone. The final products are an alkene and triphenyl phosphine oxide.

The first step in the reaction is the attack of the phosphorus ylide on the aldehyde or ketone. This is followed by attack of oxygen on phosphorus to form a [2+2] cycloaddition product (oxaphosphetane)  which  decomposes to form the alkene and triphenylphosphine oxide.

GivenL C2H2 + 5O2 ------> 4 CO2 + 2H2O
diamong [38]

Answer:

101 L

Explanation:

35.0 g KOH ÷ 56.09 g/mol KOH × (1 mol H2O/ 1 mol KOH) × 18 g/mol H2O = 11.2 g H2O

35.0 g HCl ÷ 36.45 g/mol HCl × (1 mol H2O/ 1 mol HCl) × 18 g/mol H2O = 17.3 g H2O

35.0 g KOH is the limiting reactant

Consider n2 (g) + 3h2 (g) →→ 2nh3 (g). what is the mass of nitrogen gas required to react with 0.129 g h2?
Flura [38]
The given chemical reaction given above is already balanced such that the number of atoms in the left hand side of the equation is equal to that of the right hand side. Using the dimensional analysis, proper conversion factors and the molar masses,

                    mass of nitrogen = (0.129 g H₂)(1 mol H₂/2 g H₂)(1 mol N₂/3 mol H₂)(28 g N₂/1 mol N₂)
                     mass of nitrogen = 0.602 g N₂

Therefore, 0.602 g of nitrogen will be required for he reaction.
